Perception of self-production of electricity as useful in France 2020

In order to fight climate change, encouraging people to produce their own electricity (solar, wind, home electricity production facilities...) seemed like a very useful idea according to 26 percent of French respondents in 2020. According to another survey from 2019, people who have photovoltaic panels are keener to consume their own amount and sell the surplus to the market grid.

To act on the environmental situation, fight against pollution and climate change, would you say that encouraging individuals to produce their own electricity is useful?
